OVERVIEW OF REMOTE SENSING

(David Sandwell, Copyright, 2007)

Definition

Remote sensing is an incredibly broad subject ranging from photographic imaging to nuclear magnetic resonance imaging to seismic tomography to multibeam sonars to synthetic aperture radars . . . In this class we'll limit the scope to:

?satellite (or aircraft) remote sensing of the Earth (mostly);

?information carried by electromagnetic waves; and

?no discussion of atmospheric sounding.

When you look through the textbook by Rees [2001], you will not find detailed discussion of applications of remote sensing. Instead the focus is on the physical principles of remote sensing. Studying all the applications in a 10-week course would be impossible. Moreover, the methods and applications change frequently so details learned today will be obsolete tomorrow. It is more important to learn the fundamental principles and learn the details later as needed. For the graduate-level course, the students select a scientific problem that can be addressed using one or more remote sensing tools. Then they can become experts on the particular application with scientific guidance from a researcher at SIO. Over the years I have collected perhaps 100 term papers from SIO graduate students. The topics are very diverse. For example a student prepared a term paper on the correlation of offshore bird census information (from ship observations) with ocean surface temperature measured by satellite. My area of expertise uses the tools satellite geodesy to measure the properties of the solid earth. This includes measuring micro variations in the pull of gravity over the oceans using radar altimetry and measuring crustal deformation using synthetic aperture radar interferometry. Each year new remote sensing instrumentation is being developed. This technology development is driven by scientific questions and practical needs.

I hope that you can get the following out of this course:

? a brief review of some basic physics;

? a broad understanding of the methods and limitations of remote sensing systems;

?an introduction to image processing and display methods;

?an overview of a few of the systems being deployed today; and

?finally, throught the term project (graduate students only), I hope you can obtain a detailed understanding of a particular remote sensing system and how it addresses a scientific issue.

Most of the information gathered by remote sensing satellites could be obtained by other means. For example if one wanted to measure sea surface temperature (SST) across the Gulf Stream between New York and Bermuda, one could make the measurement from a ship or aircraft that commonly traverse that route. However, if one wanted to measure SST across the Antatctic Circumpolar Current then a satellite is the more appropriate platform. The main advantages of satellite remote sensing are:

?global data set of uniform quality;

?rapid data acquisition after the satellite is designed, built, and launched;

?no need to obtain permission from other countries;

?can revisit a site on a regular basis for a long period of time; and

?spacacraft provide very stable platforms.

Of course the main disadvantages are the high cost of a satellite system, the many years it takes to develop and launch the system, and the possibility of a launch failure or system failure.

CryoSat Mission lost due to

launch failure

8 October 2005

ESA PR 44-2005. Today at 21.00 CEST

Mr Yuri Bakhvalov, First Deputy

Director General of the Khrunichev

Space Centre on behalf of the Russian

State Commission officially confirmed

that the launch of CryoSat ended in a

failure due to an anomaly in the launch

sequence and expressed his regret to

ESA and all partners involved.

Preliminary analysis of the telemetry

data indicates that the first stage

performed nominally. The second stage

performed nominally until main engine

cut-off was to occur. Due to a missing

command from the onboard flight

control system the main engine

continued to operate until depletion of

the remaining fuel.

As a consequence, the separation of the

second stage from upper stage did not

occur. Thus, the combined stack of the

two stages and the CryoSat satellite fell

into the nominal drop zone north of

Greenland close to the North Pole into

high seas with no consequences to

populated areas.

Space is a risky business, it always

has been, it doesn't always go

perfectly Prof Duncan Wingham,

Cryosat chief scientist

"It is a very sad event for many

scientists around Europe and also

for the teams involved in industry

which built the satellite," he said. http://www.esa.int/esaCP/SEMR3Q5Y3EE_index_0.html

Applications of Remote Sensing

Meterology- profiling of atmospheric temperature, pressure, water vapor, and wind velocity.

Oceanography - measuring sea surface temperature, mapping ocean currents, and wave energy spectra.

Glaciology- measuring ice cap volumes, ice stream velocity, and sea ice distribution.

Geology- geomorphology, identification of rock type, mapping faults and structure.

Geodesy - measuring the figure of the earth and its gravity field.

Topography and cartography - improving digital elevation models Agriculture, forestry, and botany- monitoring the biomass of land vegetation, monitoring the health of crops, mapping soil moisture, forecasting crop yields. Hydrology- assessing water resources from snow, rainfall and underground aquifers.

Disaster warning and assessment - monitoring of floods and landslides, monitoring volcanic activity, assessing damage zones from natural disasters.

Planning applications- mapping ecological zones, monitoring deforestation, monitoring urban land use.

Oil and mineral exploration- locating natural oil seeps and slicks, mapping geological structures, monitoring oil field subsidence.

Military - developing precise maps for planning, monitoring military infrastructure, monitoring ship and troop movements . . . (This is where most of the US funding for remote sensing goes.)

Electomagnetic Spectrum

Before starting the course it is useful to review the relevant part of the electromagnetic spectrum. This figure from Rees [2001] shows a wavelength range from ultraviolet through the visible spectrum through infrared to microwave and longer radio waves. Of course, the visible spectrum is subdivided by color (hue). Next lecture we'll discuss how our eyes and brain process visible light. The other major subdivision occurs in the microwave part of this spectrum. As we'll see next, this is a very important part of the spectrum for remote sensing and the electrical engineers have provide cryptic labels that we should all learn (Ka, K, Ku, X, C, S, L, and P).

Constraints

There are three practical constraints on satellite remote sensing of the Earth.

1) There needs to be a source of radiation.

Passive remote sensing systems rely thermal

emissions from the Sun (mostly visible) which

reflect off the surface of the Earth as well as

direct thermal emissions from the Earth

(thermal IR). Active systems can operate in the

visible (laser), IR (laser) and microwave

(radar).

2) The EM waves must be able to penetrate through the ionosphere and atmosphere. For the Earth there are three main windows in the visible, thermal infrared (IR) and the microwave region.

3) There needs to be a platform in space to collect the EM signals, digitize them, and transmit the data back to Earth. The satellite must be in orbit around the earth so the inward force of gravity must be equal to the outward centrifugal force. A variety of orbits are possible as will be discussed in the next lecture. One can tune the orbit and platform characteristics to vary altitude and speed, revist time, phase of the orbit plane with respect to solar illumination or lunar/solar tides, and platform orientation (yaw, pitch and roll).

英语写作之反馈机制

英语写作之反馈机制 【关键词】反馈高级英语写作教学 一.引言 高级英语写作一般是在英语专业本科大三年级开设的一门专业 必修课,开设此课程的目的不仅是为了继续提高学生的英语写作能力,反馈主要分为同级反馈、会谈反馈及批语式反馈三种形式。也为了培养学生的篇章组织能力、文学欣赏能力、文学表达能力等等。高级英语写作课程对提高英语专业学生的综合能力具有重要的作用,教师应充分重视该课程的教学。 高级英语写作教学的效果受许多因素的影响,学习者作文中的优点与缺点能否及时得到反馈是其中的重要因素之一。在传统的高级英语写作教学中,教师往往采取学生写作,教师评分再把评分结果反馈给学生的形式对学习者的作文进行指导。这种反馈形式有很大的局限性,大部分学生都会忽视教师的反馈,对教师指出的错误不予以重视,在下次写作时仍会犯同样的错误,起不到反馈的作用。小部分英语基础差的学生,对教师的反馈看不明白,弄不清楚自己错在哪里,失去了反馈的意义。本文针对当前高级英语写作教学中反馈的问题,提出了使用多种反馈形式有机结合的方式来有效地提 高学习者的高级英语写作能力。 二.写作教学中的反馈 反馈的概念是在20世纪70年代由过程教学法引入写作教学中

的。[2]在写作教学中,反馈是指”读者向作者输入修改作文的信息”。[3]在写作教学中,合理地运用反馈能够有效地帮助学习者更清楚、更准确地表达自己的思想,能够有效地提高学习者的英语综合能力。 写作教学中的反馈可以分为同级反馈(peer feedback)、会谈反馈(conferences as feedback)及批语式反馈(comments as feedback) 。不同反馈形式具有不同的作用,但它们都是写作教学中反馈的重要组成部分。 同级反馈是指通过同学之间互改作文的形式,来指出对方作文中的错误,学习者在相互探讨中共同提高写作水平及英语综合能力。同级反馈可以培养学习者对错误的敏感性。在同伴论文中发现的错误,学习者会尽量避免在以后的写作中再犯。而对于同伴论文中的优点,学习者也会进行一定的模仿。因此,同级反馈非常有利于提高学习者的写作水平和英语综合能力,尤其是对于高水平学习者来说。 会谈反馈是指教师通过面谈的方式来向学习者反馈他们作文中 的错误。以面谈的形式进行的反馈,方便教师就学习者的错误作出正面解释。而学习者对教师的解释有不明白之处,也可以现场提问。该种反馈方式及时、效果较好,但是耗时较多,不便于大范围地实 施,但能够迅速提高低水平学习者的写作水平。 批语式反馈是指教师以批语的形式批改学生的作文。该反馈形式

学院简介 外国语学院具有悠久的办学历史,其前身可溯源至1934年南京医科大学创建时便成立的外语教研室,主要承担全校的公共外语教学工作。2000年,外语教研室更名为外语部,除进行公共外语教学外,于2003年设置了四年制本科英语专业,从而在专业建设方面取得了重要进展。2006年,作为学校大力发展人文学科的重大举措之一,外国语学院正式成立,从而迎来了外语教学与科研发展的全新局面。 外国语学院目前有在编教职工49名,其中专任教师41名,教授、副教授8名;此外,学院还聘有兼职教授、副教授6名,外籍语言专家3名。学院下设英语系、大学外语一部、大学外语二部、研究生外语部、英美文化研究所、外语培训中心、院行政办公室等教学、科研及行政机构,承担全校本科生、研究生公共外语教学及英语专业教学工作。全院教师恪尽职守,教学工作成绩斐然。大学英语四、六级考试及英语专业四、八级考试通过率均居较高水平。在科研工作方面,近五年来我院教师承担了一批具有一定理论及实践价值的科研项目,发表了大量高质量论文并出版了一定数量的专著。 我院现有一个专业—英语专业。我院英语专业课程严格按教育部英语专业教学大纲所要求的主要课程设置。培养学生具有较为深厚的英语语言基础及较为扎实的语言学、英美文学、文化等方面的专业知识。同时,我们又依托本校的强势学科与品牌专业,开设了一定数量的医药类课程,从而形成我院英语专业的办学特色。目前该专业在校人数137人,学生在教师的悉心指导和教育下,学习刻苦、学风端正、英语功底较为扎实,为将来就业打下了坚实的语言基础。首届毕业生(2003级)将于今年7月毕业,其毕业去向主要有二,一是就业。由于社会对外语人才的需求仍十分旺盛,我院英语专业毕业生就业前景良好,主要就业单位包括学校、医院、宾馆、旅行社、外贸、翻译公司等。二是考研。部分毕业生选择考研,主要攻读英语语言、文学、文化等专业的硕士学位,或法律、管理类文科专业的硕士学位。

高级英语写作(一)、(二) 前言 一、概述 《高级英语写作教程》(A Course for Advanced English Writing)是为外国语学院英语专业本科生第4、5学期开设的一门专业必修课。 在我国日益融入全球化进程的今天,英语书面交际能力在对外交流中占据着越来越重要的地位。这种重要性表现在对书面交际的需求日益增加、对写作能力的要求日益提高两个方面。高层次的书面交流,不仅要求使用语法正确、句子通顺、结构完整的英语表达思想,更重要的是要从中西文化差异、思维方式差异和表达习惯差异的角度出发,学会针对不同对象和目标,运用不同的语言达到交际和沟通的目的。 《高等学校英语专业英语教学大纲》对本科生大三、大四的英语写作能力提出了明确而量化的要求。与此同时,近年英语专业八级统测的作文题目越来越向测试学生使用英语表达创造性思维的方向发展。 全球化发展大环境的需求和《教学大纲》对英语写作提出的新要求,从两个不同侧面为高级英语写作教学指明了方向。英语专业高级写作教学的基本任务和目标,应该是帮助学生了解中西方思维、表达方式的差异,学会使用西方人更习惯因而更容易接受的方式表达思想,成功而又创造性地进行书面交流。本课程大纲就是在这样的方针指导下编写完成的。 二、课程教学目的和基本要求 本课程旨在使学生1)用英语连贯性地表达思想,2)了解不同体裁的英语写作,掌握不同体裁的结构特点及写作风格,以及3)了解并练习英语实用文体写作。 本课程要求学生完成以下三个方面并以此综合评分:(1)上课出勤及课堂讨论(30%);(2)作业(40%)和(3)期末考试(30%). 三、课程主要内容及课时分配 本课程分两大部分。 第一部分包括描写文、叙述文、论说文等各种不同体裁的写作。每讲分两部分。第一部分详细解释该体裁的结构特点和写作策略等。第二部分是范文选读,通过阅读该体裁的名家佳作数篇,使学生了解不同体裁的写作风格,最后布置适量的练习。 253
